RIP Neil Peart

[Turboe]

My first "real" concert growing up was Rush Power Windows Tour.
Camped out at Ridgemar Mall in Fort Worth for tickets!
My favorite all time band.
RIP, def the GOAT!

RIP. Neil.


2112 is the best album they produced.

[Solocam84]

****. That sucks.

[Artos]

RIP. Neil.


2112 is the best album they produced.

It's really too hard for me to pick as I like how they evolved, but no doubt at all this one really set the 3 on fire with masses...oddly enough Tom Sawyer is noted to be their best / all time song & one my 'meh' vs countless others. 40 years of tunes. Hemispheres is credited to be the most difficult & time consuming to produce by the three & said they would never do another like it.

There are 2-3 documentaries on RUSH & worth watching...I think Neil lost his wife and/or daughter in an accident & Neil just peeled off on his BMW scooter & toured the Americas to clear his head. Geddy was quoted as he thought it was the end of the band, as there was no replacing any member.

'Geddy' is actually named Gary, but his mom (holocaust survivor) pronounced it with D's & it stuck.

[Pstraw]

The best drummer I ever heard.

[PondPopper]

No doubt the best drummer to have walked GODs green earth. He shared his talent also, has a lot of youtube teaching vids.

RIP, one of the best drummers of all time. He was always the benchmark most were measured to.

He was also a very good writer. I enjoyed this book very much. RIP

If you never saw their induction into the R&R Hall of Fame it is worth your time...the critics hated their progressive tunes & fans demanded it. Probably never had an ovation greater.
